I like to utilize a strength-based therapy to encourage people to adopt a positive mindset, focusing on internal strengths rather than weaknesses or failures to improve resilience. My past life experiences have influenced my career path and that often gives me the ability to connect easily with others. I have an undergraduate degree in Addiction Studies from Minot State University and a master’s degree in Clinical Counseling from the University of North Dakota, and provide services at the Minot office.
